THE CITY OF THE ANGELS
BY FEEDEBIC J. HASKIST.
' ' (Copyright. 1808, by Frederic J. Haskin.)
Loa Angeles, Cal.. May 26. Tha Loa Angeles Country club la getting
ready to move. It la the only country club In America, which la migratory
by habit It haa moved before and It will move again, because It haa to
move to keep in tha country. Years ago when tha club waa first organised
it went away out into the rural districts and established Itself. By and
by the city or Los Angelea followed It. streets and , city homes grew up all
around It, and it waa a country club In name only. So the club cut up Its
grounds' into city lota, sold them for a fortune, and went miles away out Into
the country. But the city of Los Angelea puraued it The country club is
surrounded by paved streets and housea regularly planted on 100-foot lota,
It is no more in the country than tha Madison Square of Manhattan. It is
preparing to sell out again, for a greater fortune thia time, and it will pitch
lta tent somewhere five or alx .mllea away from tha city,
But the club la hopeless. It haa
abandoned all idea of a permanent home.
It knows it can find no rest from Its
wandering. Bald the club, speaking
through one of its members: "We will
try to find a place next time where we
can stay for eight "or ten years, we
can't hope for more, because if we went
beyond tbo cltv limits lot Los Angeles
of 1910 we would have to get so far
away that it would take nearly all day
to go and come from the club."
Country clubs live a precarious life
in this part of the world. There Is no
objection to clubs, but the descriptive
adjective "country" is like a red rag to
a bull when waved in the faca of a
city that doubles its copulation every
five or alx years. Another country club
; in Lo Angelea whose members actually
want to play nolo and golf, has under
taken 'the most elaborate precautions
to prevent the city from swallowing it
whole. It has established Itself In a
deep ravine which is protected on the;
city side by a high mountain.
-''. Exclusive Olnb.
The trolley line will approach it on
the outside of the mountain wall. But
no ctty-buUdlngr -eountryrdestroying
trolley will be permuted to invaae me
sacrea precincts, oy no means. ins
members of the club will alight from
trailer nara In tha faca of a blank and
forbidding cliff. They will glance fur
tively about to set If T"rank Wiggins or
any other agent of the gclty-extendlng
cnamoer or commerce is -pooui. u
coast is clear the club member will
dart quickly Into a half concealed open
ing in mi eilll. it is me lunnei imuuna
the mountain which leads .to the coun
try club. It Is a private tunnel to be
used by members only. Even so ro
bust and all-devouring a city as Los
Angeles will have to look alive if it
aver succeeds In capturing this well-
fortlrlea country ciuo.
Nueatra Senora la Relna Los An
geles. as this city was called when It
was a Spanish pueblo, is not an enemy
of the good people who play srolf and
tennis. - But It is the implacable foe
of rural territory. It pounces upon
farms and .orchards" arid transforms
them into- city wards. In carrying on
this , warfare against the rural terri
tory surrounding: it, Los Angeles has
grown more rapidly than any other
American city of Importance. It has
kept its growth up steadily and It in
lnnH in Wn tt minor.
Los Angeles waa a hundred years old
in 1880. It then boasted a population
of 11.000 people. Five tears later came
the new railroad which gaVe It trans
continental transportation facilities. Ap
parently the . first thing, the railroad
brought was a regiment of real estate
agents and a boom. Like tha other
town booms of the eighties, things went
too far . and too' high. There was a
great inflation and then tha bubble
burst. t But even after the boom had
collapsed, Loa Angeles still had 60,000
people, which' means that Its population
was multiplied by five in five years.
The real- estate agents were left here
when the bottom fell out of the boom.
It was resolved that tha good work that
had been done should not perish.
': Sxerclses Great Xnnues.ee.
So It came about that on tha ruhia -of
the boom waa born the chamber oftiftm
merce. The men-who went lntoZthat
organisation proclaimed the doctrine of
Boost. They furthermore .declared that
ne wno aoes not ooosi-is an enemy to
the city. That was 20 years ago. The
chamber of commerce has an influence
greater than any other aingle organisa
tion of its kind in any American city.
Boosting la the essence of the Uf ework
of every Angeleno. A knocker is not
permitted to live In the town. This is
fiot a fanciful characterisation, it is a
iter! fact that a resident of Los An
geles, who begins to "knock" on' the
town laso completely ostracized mat
he most choose between exile and be
coming a1 pariah among his own people.
The spcord of men who , have been
"flreJ from good Jobs at the public re
quest because of the heinous guilt of
''knocking" is a long one in Los An
geles. V 'V
In tha 10 years, between 1890 and
1900, the city doubled In population
that is, it reacnea tne 100,000 class with
a few thousand to spare, according to
the federal census. , Tha school census
taken this month shows- a population of
J04.000 naving tripled in eight years.
Four years ago a real estate agent put
tip a number of wooden "for sale" signs
on vacant lots. On each was the bold
inscription:" "Loa Angeles, Population
xoj.ooo in mis." Home oi tne signs are
still in existence,- but the painter has
run a line through the "J&O.OftO" end
haa painted beneath it "360.000." Few
cities reallse tha ambitions of real es
tate agents as presented on "for sale"
signs within tha limit of time fixed.
Loa Angeles haa-made eves tha optim
ism of a real estate man aeem like the
conservative estimates of a- property,
holder talking business with tha asses

There may be those who will say that
. tha school census is not good authori-
ty. ; Even if the . enumerators ' have
rover stepped the bounds a little bit. the
- United States census . office haa de
clared that the growth of Loa An
geles has been so much greater in pro
portion than for the preceding decade
that It was forced, to omit the city
from tha list of mid-decade population
estimates. The most conservative es
timate made places the present popu
lation at tSS.OOO, whleb is but jittle be
low the 8,000,000 mark.. Of course,
none -of these statistics take Into ac
count -the many beautiful suburban
towns which are a part of the met
. ronolttaa , clientele .of - Loa, Angeles. ;

eight years sgo, Los Angeles was the

amount of receipts at the postofflce.
Now H has moved up to 18th in the
list, ranking just ahead of Indianapo

of tourists and other transient visitors
who come to stsy a week or a month,

Not alt of the tourists who come to
Los Angeles are rich people who dan
afford to stay in tha magnificent ho
tels with which the city Is plentifully
provided. The great mapority of the
visitors take furnished rooms. The
chamber of commerce helps the visitor
to find a place to stay and tt haa on
its list ' 60.000 furnished rooms. No
city in the country of the aiae has
anything like this number, and not evon
Mew xorlc can boast of a list or dlrec
tory- which contains so many addresses
of the kind. The Anceleno is always

The Los Angeles real estate agent la
in a class by himself. The stranger
wunin tne gates cannot escape mm. He
calls at the hotels. Let the stranger
declare that he is only a tourist, that he
doesn't want to buy any property, that
no ims a prejudice against real estate,
that nothing on earth could induce him
to become interested in a corner lot
The real estate agent smilingly replies:
"Certainly, certainly, but I came around
Just to take you for a drive over the
city, Just to show you the town." From
his tone one would think that selling
land was the last thing on earth he
would care to talk about
The agent takes the stranger into his
motor car. He sweeps through the
well-paved streets. He points out the
splendid system of ornamental street
lighting, and mentions that Los Angeles

Los Angeles as it did every other city.
But creditor wholesalers said to debtor
retailers: - "Y on mustn't fail. We

more time. . We must look out for the
reputation of the town." Th Ivuuim
spirit here penetrates even Into the re

agent with his mind on business, said:

The very latest application of cement
-concrete. . tombstones haa reached
Portland, and here as elsewhere, prom
ises to become a well defined and profit
able Industry. While the - use of con
crete in the manufacture of -tombstones
seems rather a grewsome one, still the
ancients associated the tomb with the
highest artistic impulse. In the eastern
states the manufacture of concrete
tombstones has already assumed the
proportions of an important industry.
so great is tne economy or concrete.
With concrete as the structural ma
terial there is no limit to the opportu
nity of the artist. Whether the concrete
be so molded as to make the orna
mented features an integral part f the
structure. : or whether it be encrusted
with terra cotta in subdued tones, the
opportunity exists for the exercise of
the best artistic talent Designs form
erly made in marble or granite can be
readily reproduced in concrete and at
considerably smaller cost
HAWTHORNE ESTATE
: DEMANDS ITS MONEY
The Hawthorne estate haa berun suit
In the circuit court against the Mer
cnanta national bang to recover ii.
603.90 aleged to be due on a gunning
account - for 10 years at the bank. The
complaint says that between March' 80.
1898. and February 10, 1908. the eatate
deposited 8418,161.11 with the bank and
that 8399,162.11 was checked out be
tween those dates, tha suit being for the
balance.- -, - - - . . .
The defense of. the bank Is that ths
money was paid out oh checks drawn
by R. L, Cate, who ?was employed to
look after certain interests belonging to
the estate. It appears th4t the heirs
now deny that Cate was authorised to
draw the money. The transactions in

COMMISSION TO DRAW
LAWS OK CONCRETE
Milwaukee Will Have Con
struction Standardized
for Public Safety.
It is announced that in view of the
conflicting building laws which recent
ly Interfered with building 'construction
in Milwaukee, Professor F. E. Turci
ca u re. dean of the college of engineering
of tha University of Wisconsin, recom
mends the appointment of an expert
commission composed of architects', en
gineers and builders, one of the engi
neers to be an expert in concrete con
struction, the commission to comprise
five members representing all sides of
the problem. The necessity for standard
laws governing concrete construction has
been fully recognized and Professor
Turneaure's recommendations, If fol
lowed, would result In systematic effort
In that direction.
Professor Turneaure la rfo-ht In in
scribing the necessity for a code as im
perative. Very frequently absurd laws
are enacted to the disadvantage of a
community as wen as cement Interests.
For example, even in the city of Chi
cago, where Praiseworthy and lntelll.
gent effort has. been made to do justice
to the problem, an ordinance was recent
ly introduced, which, if. adopted, would
have made it Dractioaliv imDosslbla ror
any citizen not a licensed contractor to
lay a cement walK on his own property
or to put a concrete floor in his own
basement. It would have hurt small
contractors engaged in concrete work
and might have ruined their business.
The measure specified that each per
son, firm or corporation applying for a
permit under its - first section should
pay $50 a year as Its license fee, should
give a bond of 816,000 to indemnify the
city against damages, should deposit
with the city comptroller $200 a year for
four years as. a guarantee to peplace de
fective work and should deposit 8100
with the commissioner of public works
to guarantee payment for city water.
While this waa not intended to affect
reenforced concrete construction, It cor
responds with some of the efforts made
in that direction, and shows need for the
prompt action advised by Professor
Turneaure.
